Chicago Workers' Compensation Lawyer
Suffering an on-the-job injury can be a harrowing experience. In addition to the pain and discomfort of the injury itself, there are worries about receiving income, paying bills and obtaining proper medical care.
The stress is often magnified when an injured worker must deal with the bureaucracy of an insurance company that chooses the worker's doctors and controls the amount of benefits he or she receives. Insurance companies know that you face certain time limits and that you can lose some of your rights if you don't have the advantage of effective legal representation.
If you have been hurt at work, you have rights to medical treatment, wage replacement and other benefits through workers' compensation including a possible settlement or award. Chicago workers' compensation lawyers Richard Hannigan and Kevin Botha can help you get and keep the benefits you are entitled to. Our practice is limited exclusively to representing the injured worker. Insurance companies have professionals looking out for their interest; YOU SHOULD TOO!

Richard Hannigan and Kevin Botha have represented and been employed by insurance companies in the past and therefore have unique insight into what the insurance company is doing to the injured worker and how to fight for that worker's rights. Our staff has more than 30 years' experience in handling injured workers' cases throughout Chicagoland and Illinois.
We will assess every aspect of your case and inform you of all available benefits. Effective communication with our clients is critical to achieving the best possible result, and without early intervention, injured workers experience significant delays in receiving their benefits.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
